Zoila jeaniana jeaniana New Population !!!
55.0 mm     Cape Cuvier, WA     152,00 €
Item# 0003835412
FamilyCypraeidae
NameZoila jeaniana jeaniana - New Population !!! , (C. N. Cate, 1968)
Size55.0 mm
LocalityCape Cuvier, WA
NoteDuring May 2025 we engaged in a collecting campaign off our North West Coast between Bernier Island and Dampier. We found a new population of jeaniana and rosselli in 68 metres of water approximately 40 kilometers west of Cape Cuvier. The shells were very small and pretty. This specimen is only 55mm in length and has a dark patterned dorsum, a black base and high apricot margins. It has been attacked by a fish resulting puncture on its labial side that the animal has infilled with nacre. It also has a nacre encased algal pimple on it's dorsum. We saw this in many specimens and believe it is the result of a recent sever hot water event with the animals being too stressed to extend their mantles and protect their dorsal nacre. These issues are indicated by green arrows in the photos. Fine+.
